Creating ponytails with Shrinkies is quick and easy.. This tutorial will show you how to do that.. You will first need ribbon or a stretchy elastic that is about this wide. You will also need a wire comb that is for stability.. You will need Shrinkies.. I have chosen to use the 5.5 millimeter size. And your bulk hair fiber. And a latch hook tool that is appropriately sized for the Shrinkies that you are using.. The first thing that we are going to do is we are going to tie off our ribbon or elastic. Pick up a small amount of your fiber enough to fill one Shrinke when the fiber is doubled. Over. Wrap this around your ribbon., Pull it down. Straight.. Have your pulling tool ready with a Shrinkie in place. Close the latch and pull the Shrinkie onto the fiber. Slide the Shrinkie, as close as it will get to your ribbon. And apply your heat. After a few seconds. You should here a slight sizzle, as the adhesive lining starts to melt., And that completes your first bond. And we are going to continue working in this way until we have an entire row.. The last step is to simply sew on the clip for added stability., Complete, simple stitching across the top to secure your clip., And this completes your finished ponytail piece.. Now, if you like, and you want more bulk, you can add more layers. On top of this, to create fullness length, texture all kinds of dynamics., It's perfect for any occasion,

JackRabbitLondon TV: thank you so much for replying Doc! Whoop! so going to make loads of these.And I just sourced thermal colour change hair as well. This is going to be awesome!
Doctored Locks: Yes you can, but be careful to just use the corner. It's more awkward than a heat clamp, but totally doable. :)
carmen hartzenberg: can you use a flat iron as well?
JackRabbitLondon TV: hi at Doctored locs. may I ask to put the ponytail in.do you put your natural hair into a bun, put the comb in the top then wrap the ribbon around to hide both? looking forward to hearing from you. As I would love to make this. also can I use your kankelon uv hair to make this?
Demon Whisperer: What do you do with the ribbon?
rosamay7: will shrinkies harm my hair when heated?
Doctored Locks: Do you mean you want to see the ponytail placed in the hair or Shrinkies used on natural hair?
ANAKONI BAKER-LIDDELL: Hello Doctored Locs...how would create a fall for a person who was bald and want to create a fall locs??
